[Asterisk-Users] IP 500/600 1.1.0 Firmware

[mattf]

Hello,

I've talked with various people at Polycom about getting on their developer
program and they have been stalling me for weeks. The most information I
received was from Scott Willard, head of IP phone sales for Polycom. He said
that the company is not sure of what direction they want to head with
selling phones to end users in the IP-phone area(and letting their firmware
and admin manuals out in the open). They are planning to continue
development of the IP phone line and not get into the PBX area. I sold the
virtues of Asterisk to the best of my abilities and he seemed to be
interested in at least the possibility of working with the community, but he
said the final decision would be made by the IP-phones division head of
development. When he did not say.

Scott also shed a little light on Polycom relationship with other IP phone
companies, he said that Polycom licenses a lot of their speakerphone and
other phone technologies to many companies including Cisco and Avaya but
their hardware is made entirely differently than those companies, the
resemblance to the Cisco phone line is purely coincidental.

Has anyone on the list been able to locate and try out the 1.1.0 firmware?
It was released in November, but I have yet to get my hands on it.  The
Polycom site has way more docs online, but the link to the firmware only
brings up the release notes.
